limit access/permissions in TouchGFX Designer

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a project with TouchGFX Designer and I’d like to deliver it to my client, but I don’t want them to have full access to everything in the project.

Delivering only a .hex file is not enough in this case, because the client needs to have access to the TouchGFX interface to make modifications.

What I’d like is to restrict their usage so they can only do certain actions such as:

  • adding custom containers

  • moving objects around

…but without giving them access to the full project or other advanced settings.

Does TouchGFX offer any kind of limited interface / restricted mode for end-users? Or is there another way to lock or hide certain parts of the project while still allowing basic editing?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello @toxicobull25,

There's no way of restricting access or limit features in designer. Code wise however, you can create a library with your "user-code"  and include it in your project, so the end user doesn't have the sources.

Hello @LouisB

 

Thank you for your response. Could you please explain your idea in more detail?

My goal is to allow access only to certain screens, and within those screens, users should only be able to add custom containers that I prepare — without the option to insert other widgets.
